span>G Well the night came undone like a party dress <span>D And fell at her feet in a beautiful mess <span>G <span>C The smoke and whisky came home in her curls <span>G <span>D <span>G And crept through the dreams of the barroom girls <span>G She tosses and turns 'cause the sun is unkind <span>D And the heat of the day is coming in through the blinds <span>G <span>C Save all your blue skies for the rest of the world <span>G <span>D <span>G 'Cause the neon shines for the barrooms girls <span>D <span>G The barroom girls go by your side <span>A <span>D Like the ponies you pass on a carousel ride <span>G <span>C And all of the colours go round in a swirl <span>G <span>D <span>G When you dance in the arms of the barroom girls
<span>G Now she rolls to her feet 'cause she can't sleep no more <span>D And looks at the clothes laying out on the floor <span>G <span>C Last night's spangles and yesterday's pearls <span>G <span>D <span>G
